Beauty Tips to Camouflage the Flab
 There
is no denying of the fact that all of us have problem areas in our body. Nobody
is born
perfect!
Problem areas in women range from
thighs
and
buttocks to belly and
arms.
Exercising in the gym and
dieting
will help eliminate these problem areas over time. Meanwhile, there are ways you
can instantly get a flat
tummy,
lean legs,
tight buttocks and toned arms.
You may be tempted to try to cover up those unwanted pounds with extra fabric,
but this will only create the impression that there's more than what is there.
Check out these tips for instant solutions, especially if you are rushing
into an occasion
-
Flabby arms: Wearing quarter length sleeves (elbow length) works
really well with heavy arms. Let it be loose fit around the elbow to give
arms a lean look Avoid wearing tube or tank tops as they leave all your arms
visible. In case you want to wear them match them up with transparent shrugs
or overskirt. Full sleeves tops can be worn but avoid tight fitting. Well
tailored sleeves are important especially when you have flabby arms.
Slightly padded
shoulders will help create
balance
at the shoulder for full arms.
-
Bulging Waist: wearing large tops will make your look even
bigger. To slim down your waist, you should wear fitted clothing. Jackets
and tops with banded waist are a good option. Choose dark colored tops with
vertical lines or patterns. Black, purple, brown and navy blue all have
slimming effects. Balance your look with medium to large accessories such as
bags and watches. A body suit can eliminate bulge. It also gets rid of unsightly panty lines and fabric pulling. If you really
must, wear belts in a low slung manner or gently held around the waist.

Flabby
Lower Body: Thigh and butt are a predominant area of concern among teenage
girls and women who undergo
dieting and rapid
weight loss.
Avoid wearing pants below the gut. Does not go well with women's clothing if you
are plump. Keeping your
skin moisturized and tan, will make it appear thinner. A self tan is also
good to cover up
cellulite. High heels give the illusion of longer and leaner legs. Heels
with pointy toes also go a long way in extending the line of the leg. Also, try
sporting a pair of heels the color of your legs. If you're not wearing nylons,
try nude colored heels. If you're going with black nylons, try black heels.
Matching your shoe color to your legs will make your lower half appear even
longer. Wear similar coloured
clothing on your top and bottom to create a streamlined
appearance.
Avoid pairing dark pants with a bright top because this divides your body in
half and make you look chunky and short.
-
 Under-garment bulge: A bra that's too tight will create bulges
that show right through your top. Panties that are too small will cause your
hips, butt and thighs to look larger. There are plenty of
lingerie stores
that offer complimentary bra and undergarment fittings. Take advantage of
this and make sure you're buying undergarments that are properly sized for
you. Body-slimming apparel such as those from Spanx are available in many
different varieties, ranging from camis and mid-thigh shapers to bodysuits
and slips. These smooth out your flabby areas so you can wear body-hugging
outfits without having to worry about your bumps and lumps being visible.
-
If you have a chubby neck, choose v-neck lines. They create the
illusion of a longer, leaner body.
-
Hair
& Make-up: Your hair and
makeup can go a long way in helping you create the appearance of a slimmer
you. Avoid heavy makeup, as it can weigh down your face. Opt for light makeup
and highlight your cheekbones and take the focus away from areas with a little
extra. Use bright or neutral tones on eyes, cheeks and lips to illuminate the
face. Moving your hair away from your face will place more emphasis on your
bone structure. If you want to wear your hair down, try waves or curls. Stick
straight hair will put more focus on any extra weight in your cheeks or
neck.
Avoid horizontal stripes when you want to look slimmer and thinner. Another
important thing is that never have too much of pattern on your clothes or mix
patterns, ever. Have a single pattern on the dress and keep the rest in solid
and plain colors.
Try to observe these rules in the clothes you wear. There's no better way to get
the benefit of these principles than to study them and master them and
experiment in your own wardrobe.
Don't rely much on these tips for exercise and
low fat diet
is the only way to get rid of the ugly flab for a lifetime.
